To: Region 3 ExCom From: Brent Baker Subject: South Carolina Council Report Date: 28 August 2006 This is to inform the ExCom committee of the status of the South Carolina Council as of August 2006. We have had a total of three meetings this year(two e-conferences and the meeting at SoutheastCon), with another face-to-face meeting set for early October. We have elected a new Secretary, Jerry Clark, after starting the year with a dual Secretary/Treasurer. We have completed the necessary disclosure statements and Financial Operations Review forms to distribute to the necessary entities. Our financial status is in good standing to support any necessary activities needed for our sections. All sections within our Council area are holding their regular meetings, but as is the case in a number of sections, some are having trouble maintaining officers. Lee Stogner has been keeping us apprised of the status of the Membership Develpment Committee and what they are trying to do to stimulate growth throughout IEEE. We will have representatives from the Council at the fall Region 3 meeting in Atlanta. Brent Baker South Carolina Council Chair 2006-07
